Conversations from the back seat.

While driving this morning:

Me: humm, there goes one of my freshman, I wonder if he really is a freshman. I might have to look that up.

S1: I thought a freshman was a 9th grader?

Me: Well, it can be a 9th grader or a 13th grader.

S1: MaaOmmmm.

Me: Ok, there can be high school and college freshman.

S1: What are they men. Why can't we have freshwomen?

Me: Well, our language tends to be male dominate. It's because

S1: I know, women were in the home until WW II.

The conversation continued about how we are changing things a bit. She way too smart for a 4th grader.
